The key benefit of advertising your car online is that you can expose your car to a large number of people across the whole of the country. The accessibility of the internet means that although you may be the opposite side of the country to your buyer, they can still view your car and decide if it is worth the travelling needed to buy it.
With an online advert you are not restricted to local areas as you would be with magazines and (particularly) local newspapers. Placing a car advert online with websites such as Ugand autotraders .com is cheaper than an equivalent printed advert in a magazine or newspaper. The overhead costs of a website advert are considerably lower than those of a printed advert, meaning that these lower prices are passed on to you.

WHAT SCAMS TO BE AWARE OF?
Ugandautotraders.com is fully committed in supporting all types of traders and believes that security of both traders and buyers must be seen as the first step in the long climb that will eventually take the industry to the pinnacle of safety excellence. Here is some of our security advice for buyers and traders.
No money in advance!
A request for payment in advance generally always proves to be attempted fraud. Therefore, never transfer money in advance! This is true for both cash transfer payments (e.g. via Western Union, Money Gram, Escrow) as well as for bank transfers. It is possible in both cases to cash the money by presenting false identity papers, and you are unable to claim your money back!
Remember: you are taking a large risk with this type of transaction as you do not know the recipient. Therefore cash payment transfers or bank transfers are generally not the appropriate forms of payment when buying a vehicle!
Even if you intend to make the payment to an acquaintance or relative, this does not necessarily mean that you will not be the target of attempted fraud! A supposed seller with fraud in mind only needs to know a few details in order to cash your money using false papers. Therefore, never pay in advance.
No trustee service at ugand autotraders !
Ugand autotraders does not provide a trustee service nor does it offer any fiduciary accounts (or a so-called "Financial Department" etc.) for the use of buyers and sellers.
Further, ugand autotraders has not classified any salesmen as particularly safe worthy ("seal members" etc.) - neither dealers nor private persons. If you should, however, receive an email requesting that you use a trustee service or are guided to an apparent uganda utotraders webpage, this is undoubtedly a false email and webpage. If you are in doubt about the authent icity of an advert, please call us on: +256 776 400 400.
Take care with paperwork sent electronically!
Paperwork sent by electronic means (registration certificates and logbooks etc. sent by eMail ) can be falsified easily and does not offer any guarantee about the identity of the person selling the vehicle or that the documents are really proof of ownership of a certain vehicle.
Cheque fraud with a sale
As a seller, you must also guard against fraud: when selling vehicles, sellers are often given cheques which are not covered. Therefore, we would strongly advise you not to accept cheques as a means of payment!
If you as the seller receive a cheque (generally sent from abroad) where the amount is more than the agreed purchase price, then it is more than likely to be an attempted fraud. Do not, under any circumstances, transfer the difference back, as the cheque is most probably stolen or a false one even if first enquiries do not arouse any concerns.
Security risk with false emails ('Phishing')
Unfortunately, it is possible nowadays to falsify the sender's address of an email. This is used by fraudsters to obtain confidential data (credit card number, passwords etc.) or to make up false facts to a prospective buyer ("use our trust service" etc.).
Ugand autotraders will only contact private customers in connection with an advertisement or a request. As an advertiser/seller you have given either your credit card number or your account number and sort code during the advertisement payment procedure. This data is used solely for the payment of your advertisement! Ugand autotraders would never, at any stage, request this data again neither by email nor by any other means! As a prospective buyer you will not receive any emails from ugand autotraders without having been contacted beforehand (e.g. email search request, a concrete request). If, however, you do receive an email where the apparent sender is ugandautotraders then it is undoubtedly a false email.
How is the purchase/sale carried out?
Ugand autotraders is not involved at any stage in the purchase of the vehicle and does not know who buys which car from whom. Ugandautotraders does not give any recommendation as to the use of various payment methods all agreements concerning the sale are undertaken between the buyer and seller.
In this respect ugand autotraders is not able to provide any information concerning the creditworthiness of a buyer; we do not possess such information. If, however, you receive an email (where the apparent sender is ugand autotraders ) with statements concerning the creditworthiness of a buyer, then this is undoubtedly a false email.
